So has anyone else heard about this? Saw it today on IG. Is this now all years or now all MY21’s? I hope it’s not a permanent lock.

Only thing I can think of is that maybe this was one of the new ECUs with older code on in and they updated it and it hardware locked. I'm not sure if the few tunable '21s out there have newer ECU hardware but just older code. My understanding of the issue regarding cracking the newer ECUs is that it's a hardware thing.Isn't STIMIKEY aka Mike Botti (aka a good resource)?
Not sure - I have a tuned '21 (Visconti) and from my understanding, it's the same ECU/DME as the '20's but with a different calibration file.Only thing I can think of is that maybe this was one of the new ECUs with older code on in and they updated it and it hardware locked.

I suppose some clarification would be in order here. Particularly if this is coming from Botti.
Interesting. If that's the case, then I am woefully misinformedNot sure - I have a tuned '21 (Visconti) and from my understanding, it's the same ECU/DME as the '20's but with a different calibration file.
I could have misunderstood as well... would be nice if Botti could provide more clarity around what Toyota did.Interesting. If that's the case, then I am woefully misinformed
Yup. This is Mike Botti.Isn't STIMIKEY aka Mike Botti (aka a good resource)?
Fact right now is;Would like some more info on this as well to see what the facts are.
